Ship's Decks (ship-wide / twelve decks)

Ship-wide internal decks (reported as twelve in some records): metal corridors and stacked decks run like ribs through the vessel, forming a vertical city whose vents and bulkheads pulse with failing life support and the hollow thud of distant alarms. During Condition Red, alerts bleed through the ship like a pulse — every deck answers in staccato klaxons and flashing emergency indicators as systems telemetry streams urgent fault messages. Corridors feel militarized and taut; panels cast harsh crimson light, voices issue clipped commands, and command decisions echo across decks, turning routine passageways into zones of high alert where technical collapse and moral crisis collide.

Events with rich location context

S3E10 · The Defector
Crossing the Line: Nelvana Three Ordered

All decks are placed on Condition Red as announced by sensors/ops, signaling shipwide militarization and alert status that affects every crew member and systems across the Enterprise.

Atmosphere

Shipwide tension and heightened urgency, audible alarms and flashing indicators propagate across decks.

Functional Role

Conveys the escalation from routine mission to full combat readiness across the vessel.

Symbolic Significance

Highlights how a single command reverberates institutionally, militarizing the ostensibly exploratory ship.

Access Restrictions

Ship operates under restricted movement and emergency protocols while Condition Red persists.

S2E11 · Contagion
Pulaski Reverts Sickbay to Low‑Tech Triage

The ship's twelve decks are referenced to quantify the scope of emergency calls; this vertical, distributed architecture explains resource strain and why Pulaski must triage broadly rather than fix singular technology.

Atmosphere

Implied wide‑ranging, tense, and overtaxed — distant alarms and multiple demands across decks intensify Sickbay's pressure.

Functional Role

Scope indicator that contextualizes the volume of casualties and the limited capacity of sickbay resources.

Symbolic Significance

Illustrates the scale of systemic failure and how distributed infrastructure strains centralized care.

Access Restrictions

No specific physical restrictions stated, but implied logistical limits on moving patients and personnel between decks during crisis.

Thirty‑five emergency calls scattered across twelve decks (verbalized) Distant alarms and traffic implying continuous demand Recycled air and metallic sounds per scene context
